Joe Burns Starting Tailback?
If WYS had his way it would be true!

That brings up another question. Why haven't we seen him yet?
Other than, 'we don't run the ball'. He seems like a better inside runner than Bryson. Burns is more like Henry. -
What is he, 5th string? Maybe that's why we haven't seen him yet.Comment

We need to play him so wys is convinced he is not as good as Henry. We need 4 games to make sure. 25 carries a game. Then he'll be satisfied. He needs to average 4 yards a carry AFTER you take out the long runs.Comment

Right because you can't count long runs. Long runs mean nothing!Comment

On that note, when is Travis Henry going to have a long run? As in a breakaway 50+ yarder?
I'd feel alot more comfortable about him if he could show some kind of breakaway ability. Bryson has clearly demonstrated that ability.
It would be nice to have the ability to strike from anywhere on the field via the pass AND the run.Argue like hell. Keep it clean. And when it's over, shake hands and root for our team!Comment

But Bryson cannot gain tough yards. I haven't seen him do that much at all.The NTRA...GO BABY GO!!!!!!!
THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT WILLIS!!!!!!!!!!! Touchdown Wills McGahee!!!!!

In defense of Wys, I don't think he's had a significant chance.Originally posted by BillsMan80

I saw Bryson stiff-arm a couple of Bears defenders for a tough 10-yard gain. In my opinion he actually HAS produced with some tough yardage.Argue like hell. Keep it clean. And when it's over, shake hands and root for our team!Comment

...do I defend Wys because no one is that stupid OR do I wait till the lions are finished with this Christians carcass and then make soup with the bones. I do now possess enough delicious Wys to do so.

Thank you for your concern. Please check my post history and get back to me. Then you may judge me.

I was and still am one of the few people who believe Burns can be a solid back in the NFL. Granted, I don't put a lot of emphasis on the pre-season, but he didn't do anything to not warrant a chance, especially if the other RB's are a weakness on the team.
Burns doesn't have break away speed. Then again, only Bryson has that, but Bryson can't pound it up the middle. If you ask me(and I am very well aware that GW hasn't done that YET), I would platoon Bryson and Burns. Henry and his fumbles are back breakers. Do I trust Henry with the ball in his hands? No. I think Burns is a better runner to get the yards up the middle for us, than Henry is. Then also factor in Bryson for the sweeps, etc. Possibly play Henry as a 3rd down back, as he is a decent receiver, as long as he can hold onto the ball then.
Bottom line, I know GW won't bench Henry in favor of Burns, but if TH keeps fumbling, he has to do something." It happened before, it will happen again. It's just a question of when."Comment
